Found some fun videos on YouTube while eating lunch today, two episodes of God, Inc. by Francis Stokes. You can watch them on his website, francisstokes.com. The comedy reminds me of The Office, or Office Space, but with a twist, the employees in this office work in the corporate offices of God, handling public affairs, marketing, etc. A fine example of the comedy is this:
A new employee is meeting about her new role in the company…
Manager: Sarah Melody Church, you're going to be in product development, right?
Sarah: That's right.
Manager: OK… birth
Sarah: June 3rd, 1976
Manager: OK, and death?
Sarah: November 5th, 2006
Manager: How did you die?
Sarah: Leukemia
Manager: Oooh, ouch. That sucks.
Sarah: Yeah, it was pretty painful, but I had the support of my friends and family, so, that meant a lot.
Manager: Yeah… Isn't there a cure for that? (looking puzzled)
Sarah: No (also looking puzzled)
Manager: (looks at a sheet behind his desk) … Oh, yeah, that's next year. (Makes "tough luck" face)
Sarah: … (looks at floor, sadly)
Apparently he's working on Epsiode 3 now. I think these along with Chad Vader are among my favorite web videos of all time. Enjoy! 🙂

Funny stuff. Hey – that Sarah chick died on my anniversary!
Oh, and I loved: “Disaster Department. Arrogant pricks.”
Hehe, yeah, loved how excited they got about the earthquake plans.
